Grayson Perry: The Tomb of the Unknown Craftsman at the British Museum

An exhibition curated by the Turner Prize-winning artist and potter Grayson
Perry, The Tomb of the Unknown Craftsman, opens at the British Museum
tomorrow. The artist has spent two and a half years raiding the museum's
extensive archive, making art works in response to what he finds, and
gathering together a themed collection of artefacts which relate to his own
work and thought-process. The result is this show, which he calls "a journey
through my mind".

(2011) which is exhibited opposite a hand-drawn 1800 map based on Pilgrim's
Progress from the museum's archives. Perry writes in a blurb on the wall:
"Perhaps someone today should have a satnav App for moral guidance".
